1981 YAMAHA XJ550 SECA FOR SALE - SEATTLE - RUNS STRONG - TUNED - MODS - CLEAN TITLE
I’m selling my favorite motorcycle due to having too many in the garage. This 1981 Yamaha XJ 550 Seca was my first project. I’ve had it for about 10 years have perfected the art of cleaning the in-line for carburetors.
The Mikuni carbs are freshly ultrasonic, cleaned and rebuilt, bench-synced. This bike starts and runs great.
Bike comes with
Vacuum Sync tool to perfect your in-line 4 carburetors as well as a Colortune Tool for setting your air/fuel mixture. These are the two essential tools for this bike.
The gas tank has been freshly deep
cleaned inside and the bike has freshly rebuilt and cleaned petcock, new fuel lines and new fuel filter. Valves freshly treated with Seafoam Frontend Treatment and oil and filter are fresh.
It may look rough, but she’s clean on the inside.
Such an awesome bike. Yamaha’s introduction the YICS system really makes these bikes special. Original airbox is installed, and although you may want to immediately rip it out and throw some cool looking pods on there do yourself a favor and first go to the amazing XJ bikes, forum, and do some reading. You’ll discover that Yamaha designed these bikes so well and with such precision that you be doing yourself a disservice by removing a component engineered with such intention.
Super light bike with plenty of power and responsiveness.
Frame is solid and title is clean.
I have the original handlebars and front fairing with windshield, and kickstand (not installed) also includes some extra parts (carburetor rebuild kits, etc.)
Mods include:
Custom handlebars
Custom exhaust pipes
Custom digital speedometer
New seat cover
The Good:
Freshly Tuned Up
Brand new intake boots
Runs Strong
New Battery
Signals and Lights Work
Shifts Like A Dream
Beautiful Ratty Original Tank (Freshly Cleaned and Rust Treated Inside)
Front and rear drum brakes replaced
The Other Stuff:
I always planned on fully modifying this bike, including chopping the frame and swapping the front end, but ended up acquiring too many bikes and never got around to the project.
I’ve always kept this bike tuned and and love riding it still, but it’s gotten less attention over the years, so it’s time to let it go and hopefully it can go to someone who wants a perfect custom project.
The original plastics, including the front fairing, one side cover, and the tail cover are included, but do have wear and some damage. Most likely if you were going to be customizing this bike, you would be modifying/painting them yourself. They can certainly be brought back to life.
The emblems on the tank aren’t original and don’t fit perfectly, but I just leave them on there because no one looks closely at them anyway.
The biggest issue with this bike is that the front fork seals leak and are spongy. I had planned on swapping them anyway so I hadn’t gone around to replacing the seals. You can either replace the seals or swap the front end if you are going to do a custom build.
You’re welcome to come have a look on Bainbridge Island. She really is a beautiful bike with a clean title. Open to offers and trades, but I’m not in a hurry to sell.

Help identify my mom’s steel drums
มุมมอง 262 หลายเดือนก่อน
My mom ordered the drums about 10 years ago from the Caribbean. She passed away a few years ago and I just got them out and I’m trying to figure out who the maker was, but I can’t remember who the original builder was. If anyone has any information on how I can identify the maker of these, I would really really appreciate it. Thanks so much!

    For all watching this, the ribbon cables need reinsulating with electrical tape if you start to get erratic behaviour on the buttons. The faders and X faders can still be ordered through the European Distributor or resellers in Europe.. Ribbon cable is EOL X(

Managed to get full carb kit and a set of good carbs...on ebay.. Will overhaul the used carb too. The ones in the bike ...at times fuel overflows...plus the fuel pitcock is an issue !

    I just had to do this with 3 faders on mine, the faders stopped working less than 2 years after buying it which is kind of lame but it was very easy to find a full service manual with a search engine and order replacement pots. I ended up destroying one of the solder pads on the first fader (rightmost when looking from bottom) but luckily, the faders even though they are dual gang only use a single gang and the damaged pad was the wiper for the gang that is not used. Pleased to report it now works as it should. This was also my first time soldering since i was in school and the first time i serviced any of my own expensive stuff, It's definitely not as hard as it seems.

Hopefully this will be useful for someone with issues. I don't fancy having to totally strip it like you did 😱

      The RIbbon cables need to be reinsulated with some electrical tape. They wear out and start contacting the "motherboard". ome tape fixes all sorts of erratic behaviour. Dont use gaffa as it will never come off in case you need to. Electrical :) I asked the European distributor, the ribbon cables are eond of life. Faders and X faders are still available as I write this!

    Hey there, two years into the future I just wanted to let you know that you saved my butt! My beloved APC40 MK1 Developed lots of random MIDI data on slider number two. I watched your video, and decided to take the risk of spraying Deoxit On the slider before attempting to replace the slider. I already had some Deoxit, but I would not have thought to let it dry before turning on the power. With your guidance, and a bit of luck, I didn’t have to take the entire unit apart. I waited 24 hours for the unit to fully dry. I just tested it and the sliders worked perfectly. Thanks so very much for posting this video. You did some good in the world!
